2,4,6-tris(dimethylaminomethyl)phenol
What is 2,4,6-tris(dimethylaminomethyl)phenol?
2,4,6-Tris(dimethylaminomethyl)phenol (CAS 90-72-2) is a tertiary amine curing agent and accelerator for epoxy resin systems.
Where is 2,4,6-tris(dimethylaminomethyl)phenol used?
- Structural adhesives and composites: initiates and accelerates epoxy crosslinking, enabling room-temperature cure without external heat
- Coatings: hardens epoxy floor coatings, protective linings and corrosion-resistant topcoats
- Electrical encapsulation and potting compounds: complete cure of epoxy systems around sensitive components
- Polyurethane and phenolic resins: catalyst driving crosslink density in elastomers and sealants
- It accelerates epoxy cure at ambient or elevated temperatures.
Commercial specifications
- Standard commercial grades at high purity
- Packaging from small laboratory quantities to drum-scale supply
